The Snowflower Guesthouse was a lovely place to stay. It was clean throughout, and although the rooms are on the smaller side, they are very comfortable. There is both an air conditioning unit and an air purifier, so you can easily adjust everything to your preferences. The bed was really comfortable, and the shower was a good size. Although the toilet is shared, it never bothered me: I stayed for 8 days and it was always clean and accessible. Food is available throughout the day with a decent selection. For the price and location, it is an absolute steal. If you are looking for a simple, comfortable place to sleep while exploring Seoul, this is a perfect choice. The staff were all incredibly kind and welcoming. I highly recommend it! 😊 감사합니다. 재미 있었어요.

For what this guesthouse is it is really good. The rooms are small but allow for everything you need, including very efficient aircon. The WiFi is good and the toilets are modern, clean and good. Free laundry with new washing machines which is good. However, the two main drawbacks for this guesthouse is the lack of fresh food available, there was only (sometimes) apples and tomatoes with a lot of prepackaged food. I would’ve preferred some more fresh fruit. The main drawback is getting in contact with staff, I wanted to use the gym multiple times however often there was never an employee to be seen and when trying to contacting them via WhatsApp there was a language barrier. That being said overall I would recommend the guesthouse as it was an enjoyable place to stay.

I loved the kitchen on the terrace. I’m glad I was only there 2 nights the bed was uncomfortable , small, and gave me a sore back. One morning both toilets were locked, no one answered when I knocked and called out, no one around. I ended up using the men’s one toilet that was open. The other 2 were locked also.

It is a budget place to stay. The rooms are really tiny with toilets down the hall (they are kept very clean). sink and shower in the room. AC is good and there is a little de-humidifier as well. There is free food and beverages available all day that you fix yourself and clean your own dishes. It is a 10 min walk to subway line #4. There are also buses closer.

It's reasonable and acceptable with the price. The owner was helpful, and she let me check in early. You need to bring your big towel, and sometimes you can hear your neighbors because the place is small. The area is nice and quiet but far from the central downtown(around 30 minutes). Overall, the guesthouse is great.

My second stay as good as the first

This is my second stay at the Snowflower Guesthouse in 1 year, and I have enjoyed both stays. Small but very clean rooms, great common space with complimentary coffee, drinks, eggs, lunch meat, bread, fruit, ice cream and ramen. Blocks from key bus lines 150, 601, airport bus and subway line 4. Some people may not like the shared toilets but doesn't bother me as they are very clean. Nice to have a 24 hour supermarket on the first floor and tons of restaurants in the area. Near the famous Sungkyunkwan University.

This place was amazing!! Definitely the best “hostel” I’ve stayed at. You get your own small room with a bed, shower, big screen tv, ac unit, and refrigerator. The bathroom was outside of the room, but it was usually empty and very clean. They also provide use of a washing machine for free. The dryer costs money though. The entire property was very clean. The staff were incredibly nice. They also had a cute sitting area and free food and drinks 24/7! The only issue I had was that they make you pay to store your luggage. But I highly recommend this place! It will definitely be the first place I look to stay at when I go back.

Snowflower Guesthouse was an excellent place for my 10-day stay in Seoul. The central bus station that I took pretty much every day was not too far away from the property. There are plenty of shops (coffee, convenience stores, general market) around the area that were reachable within a 5-minute walking distance. As for the place itself, the people who worked there were very kind and accommodating. Check-in and check-out were hassle-free. The free breakfast provided and the coffee machine were honestly such a good part of the guest house since it was easily accessible any time of the day. The outside terrace was very nice to enjoy breakfast items and coffee since it was covered and had plenty of seats.

The feeling of own home, free food, coffee,herbal tea, orange juice, and lots more, or you can bring your own vegies meat and cook. The owner supplies all needs and safety to keep all happy and comfortable. The guest house is convenient and close to everything you need; bus, and many different restaurants around, fruits, groceries, cuppercino, fresh bakery shops, hair dresses etc.. i personally enjoyed every minute there and spent my 20 days and when i go to Korea, i definitely will stay at this wonderful Snowflower guesthouse, thanks for all the support you've given me.

The room was very small the guesthouse was hard to find since it is located on the 4 th floor noises from the street and people all night long. Was not impressed with breakfast either but the food and juice was available all day long also nobody there to check you in if you arrive in the evening and the posted phone number does not work

Very clean. I was shown on how to and where the stuff is upon checking in. Seems to be in a rush. The room is really tiny good only for 1 person. The patio where to eat is dark when you have to eat at night. But the biggest perk? It’s help yourself food is available anytime. Huge savings. The toilet is shared which I didn’t know when I booked. The place is close to everything but the subway is about 5 Minutes walk. This is not close to the sights to see you have to do subway or bus. Overall it was ok and again, the biggest perk is the food and it is very clean. It is available anytime. How I wish the patio light is on even at night. How I wish the owner at least says hi or check on the guests sometimes. How I wish it’s so much closer to Hyewa subway.

一人旅には充分でした。他の宿泊先のドミトリーとかなり迷いましたが、こちらにして良かったと思います。 部屋は狭めですが何よりシャワーとトイレが同じ部屋ではないことが嬉しかったです。 全体的に綺麗で、掃除をしっかりされてる様でした。ただ、最初に入った時に「ハガネムシ？」が出てきて、少しテンション下がりました。夏だから仕方ないかもしれませんが、寝てる間は不安でした。 オーナーさん夫婦は気さくでとても親切です。 無料の朝食も期待してなかったですが、味も種類も豊富で満足でした！ ソウル北部を訪れる際はまた利用させていただこうと思います。
